Evan Jameson Myers Arrives!

How ironic that my last post (done while working a long exhausting night shift at the hospital) mentions that no grandbaby had arrived yet. When I went out to my car at a little past 7am - there was a message on my cell phone from my son Eric, saying that Jaimie's water had broken, and they were all checked in at the hospital! It would be an understatement to say that I didn't sleep well that day! Evan Jameson Myers made his appearance at 3:32 that afternoon. He weighed 8 lbs 5 oz, and was 20 inches long. He is the most serene little baby I have been around. From the very start, he had his eyes open and just looked at everything like "So this is what I waited so long for, I think it might be an okay place!" Jaimie had a few minor complications - but did a great job, and she and Eric were immediately in love with their new little man! In fact, I get to see the sensitive side of Eric that I always knew was there, but that he worked so hard to hide...Evan is going to be such a lucky little boy - surrounded by so much love by everyone who is fortunate enough to know him! Again, I am having no end to my problems with posting pictures on the blog, and I don't want to post any until Jaimie gets caught up with her blog. Congratulations little family!
